Answer:
Right and left.
Step-by-step explanation:
Due to the rotation of the earth on its axis, the flow of the winds and the ocean current in the north takes place in the right direction that is anticlockwise.
And is opposite to the southern parts where it's clockwise i.e in the left direction of motion as a result of the curved paths. This deflection is called the Coriolis force.
